INGREDIENTS

6 c. chopped broccoli pieces, blanched for about 2 minutes, then drained well

HOW TO MAKE BROCCOLI, HAM, AND MOZZARELLA BAKED WITH EGGS
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 375 degrees F or 190 degrees C. Using a nonstick spray, grease a 9 x 12-inch casserole dish.
Step 2: In a medium-sized pot, pour in water and bring to a boil.
Step 3: In the meantime, dice the ham, slice the green onions, and measure the mozzarella cheese.
Step 4: Add the broccoli to the boiling water and cook for just 2 minutes. After 2 minutes, pour the broccoli into a colander and drain well.
Step 5: In the prepared casserole dish, layer the broccoli, ham, mozzarella, and green onions (optional). On top, sprinkle the Spike Seasoning and fresh-ground black pepper. Over everything, pour the beaten egg.
Step 6: Stir everything using a fork until just coated in egg. Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 35 to 45 minutes or until the mixture is set and beginning to lightly brown.
Step 7: Remove from the oven when done and serve the casserole with sour cream if desired. You can store this in the fridge for at least a week and simply reheat it in the microwave.
